- Service Learning is a term used to describe a type of experiential learning where students engage in service to the community.
- Academic Service Learning is used to describe a type of experiential learning where students in a course engage in service to the community; and the service activity enhances and relates to the course content. Academic service learning courses include reflective exercises through which students have the opportunity to describe what they learned from the service experience.
Missouri University of Science and Technology has implemented a campus-wide service learning program. The mission of the program makes reflective service learning an integral part of the education and life experiences of Missouri S&T students.
By developing a campus-wide service learning program, Missouri S&T has expanded service learning opportunities to a broader range of Missouri S&T students and enhanced Missouri S&T’s mission to be the premier source of leaders for today’s society.
